“TANGOMACHINE” is the first of its kind tango-dance performance in Bulgaria, which is created, choreographed and performed by LAOKOONTANGO (Ivaylo Alexandroff and Gabriela Pancheva) and is built up entirely on the aesthetics of Argentine Tango and the digital environment. The performance investigates the delicate connection between the classical elegance of Tango de Salon and the creative impressiveness of Tango Nuevo and experiments radically with the endless possibilities of Tango as a dance and the absolute limitlessness of visual form, being deeply inspired by the words of the great tango composer Osvaldo Pugliese: “Nosotros somos un poroto de la maquina tanguera. Un tornillo de esta maquina, nada mas.” (Teatro Colon, Buenos Aires, 26/12/1985)
Under the patronage of the Embassy of Argentina in Bulgaria
